Top-floor one-bedroom apartment, approx 56 sqm (606 sq ft)
Share of freehold; long-term ownership security
Walking distance to Hove Seafront and Hove Station

Gas central heating throughout the flat
Lease around 90 years remaining; service charge ~£1,680/year
No private outdoor space; communal entrance and stairs only
Local area records higher-than-average crime levels
Set on the top floor of a handsome Victorian villa in central Hove, this one-bedroom flat offers spacious rooms and tall ceilings across about 56 sq m (606 sq ft). The separate kitchen/breakfast room and a large living room provide comfortable day-to-day living, while gas central heating and a share of freehold give practical long-term security.
Location is a major asset: an easy walk to Hove seafront, local shops, cafes and Hove Station for commuters. The building’s period entrance and large windows bring character and good natural light; the flat’s layout suits a single buyer or couple wanting a central, well-connected base.
Practical points to note: the lease has around 90 years remaining and the service charge is approximately £1,680 per year. There is no private outdoor space, and the neighbourhood records higher local crime levels than average. The living room shows signs of ageing and would benefit from updating to reflect modern tastes.
Overall this is a solid, chain-free opportunity for a first-time buyer or someone downsizing who prioritises location, character and convenient transport links, and who is comfortable taking on a property that may need light refurbishment.
